On today's episode of the B&H Photography Podcast, we are joined by Craig Semetko, a documentary and street photographer who is much more than those two descriptors.

Today we welcome a special guest to the B&H Photography Podcast: actor and comedian Jeff Garlin. Jeff Garlin is well known as a stand-up comedian and, of course, as a star of the hit television shows, The Goldbergs and Curb Your Enthusiam.

We have been looking forward to speaking with Collins for a while, and are very pleased to present our conversation with him on this week’s episode of the

Flying in directly from a post-Oscar party in Hollywood, Greg Gorman joined us for a conversation at the 2020 Depth of Field Photo Conference this February, where he was the keynote speaker.

Still in demand by A-listers, Gorman’s work reaches
